Saudia Airlines has completed preparations for the launch of its direct flights to the Canadian city of Toronto beginning Oct. 28 as part of its strategic plan to expand its international operations.
Saudia will operate three flights weekly, each flight taking 13.5 hours to reach its destination. The outgoing flight will take off from Riyadh for Toronto via Jeddah while the return flight will follow the Toronto-Jeddah-Riyadh route.
Saudia will be using Boeing 777-200 aircraft for its Toronto flights. The aircraft has 24 seats in the First Class, 38 seats in Business Class and 170 seats in Economy Class.
Saudia intends to operate another flight to Los Angeles in the spring of 2014.
